Okay, then how about adding a configurable delay before popping up the diff window?
E.g. if no results arrive within, say, 1 second then a timer pops up the
window, so the user knows the diff is in progress, but slow.

This takes care of the slow remote system problem and the timer would practically
never  fire on a local machine where the filesystem response is quick.
